Description
In a future America, the past has become myth. Traveling across the country is like navigating a wasteland, with landscapes that shift and monsters that roam. Artificial intelligences try to recreate the myths of their human creators, while Ed, an emergent AI, seeks to understand those who made him. Ed assembles a team to reach Monument City, a place shrouded in myth and nanotech. As they journey through this altered landscape, they confront terrifying questions about the future and what it means to be human. Alex Irvine's Anthropocene Rag is a thought-provoking exploration of American mythmaking and its implications for our world. In this nanotech Western, Irvine infuses the familiar with unsettling possibilities, raising essential questions about who we will become in a world where technology and nature are increasingly intertwined.
